THIS. In any other country that is not the US, the advice given by the article is really bad advice.

Conversely, there is no such thing as "advice given in X article is really great advice in all countries". All countries have different laws.

Whenever you read about how law is applied, put it in the correct context of the jurisdiction and time frame in which it is written.

Do what you are told. If you have nothing to hide, you will not get into trouble.
